‘Drunk History’ Renewed For Fifth Season By Comedy Central – TCA

Comedy Central has picked up a fifth season of its Emmy-winning series Drunk History, with a 14-episode order for premiere later this year. The renewal was announced today during the network’s session at TCA.

Created by Derek Waters and Jeremy Konner, who also split directing duties, Drunk History is the liquored-up narration of our nation’s history. Hosted by Waters and featuring an ever-changing cast of actors and comedians, the series presents all the rich tales that the past has to offer. Booze helps bring out the truth. It’s just that sometimes the truth is a little incoherent.
